Patch is Looking For Student Bloggers

Patch is now seeking high-school aged writers to share their experiences via our blogging section.

This is a great opportunity for aspiring writers, journalists and creative people to become published and build their résumés for future college and job applications. 

A few Student Blog possibilities (but choose any topic you're passionate about!):

• High School Sports Coverage. Do you have school spirit? Share what's going on with local sports teams from the vantage point of a classmate
• The Life of a Wisconsin Teenager. Offer readers a glimpse into the daily life, perspectives and pressures of being an area high schooler. 
• College Prep. Are you preparing yourself for a college education? Share your experience studying for ACT's, applying for schools and leaving home for the first time.

If you're the parent, relative or teacher of someone you think might be interested in this fun opportunity, be sure to point them in our direction!

Patch blogs are available to anyone and have no requirements or expectations. Bloggers can write what and when they'd like. A Patch editor reviews all blog posts to ensure they meet our terms of service, but few, if any, changes are made to entries. Blogs are available to people of all writing abilities and experience. Posts can be a few sentences or thousands of words ... it's really up to you! 

Authors get access to Patch's daily, local audience and can use the blogs to start conversations, share stories, and promote their own work to thousands of readers. All you need to start writing is a Patch account and an email to let us know you're interested.
